This volume searches for pragmatic answers to the problems that
continue to beset peacebuilding efforts at all levels of society,
with a singular focus on the role of legitimacy. Many peacebuilding
efforts are hampered by their inability to gain the support of
those they are trying to help at the local level, or those at
regional, national or international levels; whose support is
necessary either for success at the local level or to translate
local successes to wider arenas. There is no one agreed-upon reason
for the difficulty in translating peacebuilding from one arena of
action to another, but among those elements that have been studied,
one that appears understudied or assumed to be unimportant, is the
role of legitimacy. Many questions can be asked about legitimacy as
a concept, and this volume addresses these questions through
multiple case studies which examine legitimacy at local, regional,
national and international levels, as well as looking at how
legitimacy at one level either translates or fails to translate at
other levels, in order to correlate the level of legitimacy with
the success or failure of peacebuilding projects and programs The
value of this work lies both in the breadth of the cases and the
singular focus on the role of legitimacy in peacebuilding. By
focusing on this concept this volume represents an attempt to build
beyond the critical peacebuilding approach of deconstructing the
liberal peacebuilding paradigm to a search for pragmatic answers to
the problems that continue to plague peacebuilding efforts at all
levels of society. This book will be of much interest to students
of peacebuilding, conflict resolution, development studies,
security studies and International Relations.
